A Stands up Aganst Holocaust in Acholiland

A Stands up Aganst Holocaust in Acholiland

Almost the entire maternal side of my family was
slaughtered in the German holocaust on the Jews along
with millions of others. Since I was a child, I could
never understand how the world could allow so many to
die.
When I asked, people responded that they didn't
know it was happening until it was too late.
When I heard about Northern Uganda, I realized that if
I know now, it is my responsibility to tell as many
people as I can. We were always taught to say ? Never
Again!- when I begun researching this crisis, I found
out what that phrase really means to me as a Jew and
as a photographer: Never Again to allow catastrophic
suffering to continue in secret; Never Again afford
the international community the excuse of ignorance.
